I would highly recommend this company. Their costs are reasonable and they kept me in the loop at all times in a very professional manner. My surveyor was John Hayward and when I needed clarification of some aspects of the report he spent almost two hours on the phone with me explaining every detail. This was on a Friday evening when I am sure it was his "downtime ". He couldn't have been kinder to me. I did not buy the house and am still looking but would have no hesitation in using Gold Crest when I find what I am looking for. Thank you Gold Crest.

I found Gold crest chartered surveyors very efficient and professional. The survey was very comprehensive and with accompanying photographs which helped enormously. I found the aftercare brilliant and any questions answered. I would highly recommend this company. They were recommended to me by a relative and I have recommended them to someone after my good experience.

Catherine Hamson was really helpful with my queries here. Really good survey, just note that there are different survey levels - one will include pictures and one doesn't! Ensure you check which one you want.
